Emilie Autumn - The Asylum (Story/Indro)

[TheBookWorm19961]

This is so amazing, especially with the roaring winds of an storm outside! Where my very room begins to shake, with the mighty wind! Emilie Autumn is always able to bring out my writer self even more!

[DarkAngelCookie]

i scribbled a picture of my imagine to this song....mhh... I'll load it up...^^

...its a long corridor with a room on the end...- torches on the wall left and right...- and in the room u see many many doors...

[Toshiya231]

whats that meaning? What happened with her or what?? >.<

[katie97hudgens]

Don't open the description. Please.

[autogirl333]

if edger allen poel was still alive she and him would have done an astonishing collaberation!

[gtsinger96]

Now, I REALLY want my book to come.

[littlexscreamer]

I...really just love hearing her voice.

[creepyjen]

what unnerved me completely was beyond the gates.... not what on earth completely was beyond the gates.....

[mirroredhour]

OMG, i've never wanted a book SOOOOO much before. this book is just soooooo.....interesting! I have enough money to buy a $75 copy of the book from the website, but........wow, emilie is a genius. i love her and this book is just so..........I can't wait to read it! hopefully the books don't run out before i can get one--i don't shop online much and my parents would need to do whatever, but I AM GETTING THIS BOOK! <3

[Frisbieinstein]

Wow! This is really good. I had no idea.

[TheHinun]

I love the photo BUT in the book as she describes the asylums architecture there is no glass windows, but bars.

[PuffyAmiYumi]

I really wish the book was more widely available. I would pre-order it on her site, but by the time I save up my money, it always goes. And although I have seen it on ebay it is far too expensive on there, and I don't have paypal =(

[ihopeutubedies]

It appeared? What appeared?! I have to get this book!

[TheEmilieH]

Its actually 2 (maybe 3) seperate parts in the middle of the book :o

[Repudation]

Where do I get it D:

[followingme93]

hey, anyone knows if this book is gonna be sold here in Mexico?

because i want it so bad!!

: )

and i'm a big muffin of hers : )

[Jazy1993]

OMG I WANT THIS BOOK SO BAD!!!!!!!!!

[xXxpOiZuNcUpCaKexXx]

oohh! so good, i cant wait till i get the book!

[Kstone277]

"Ultimate prefaces" should be "ultimate precipice."

Thanks for sharing.

[grimeldasnodpocket]

I am not the gushing fan girl type, but I can't figure out how someone as creative, talented, beautiful, charming and interesting as Emilie Autumn is not a household name. Next to her, Madonna, Britney, Lady Gaga etc all look like a bunch of talentless wannabes. It boggles the mind.

[paramorexd423]

I Love How She Pronounces Hooves On 3:13 . :D Xoxo <3 :D GabriellaEve :D <3 Xoxo

[MermaidBlueFins]

Wow beautifully read and thanks for the translation.

[jakshacarica]

does anyone know the name of the instrumental used in this vid?

[MichelleElizabeth92]

does anyone know where I can buy it? Is there an audio version? I last heard that it was sold out!

[andrika1990]

I really want the book too. but I wish Amazon would get it. Its so expensive by the way:(

[32prettykitty]

Where can I find the Audio Book? I've looked everywhere but can't seem to find it. If anyone knows please tell me. Thanks.

[xxBloodyMachetexx]

It comes with the book

[WolfInWomansSkin]

@32prettykitty If you order the Asylum book from The Omega Order, they'll email you the link to 3 tracks of her reading certain chapters aloud. I don't think a full official audio book has been released yet.

Though strangely the track in the video is a very different version than the one in the audio book, and on the second disc of the Opheliac re-release. In the version I've heard she's reading it with a British accent and its a bit shorter.

[LexiLavenderLife]

tell me how to get this bookk!!!!!!!

[FallenShards]

@LexiLavenderLife D: They are temporarily sold out. Keep your eye out for itttt.

[LexiLavenderLife]

i deffinatly (spelling) willl!

[Opheliac666]

I hear her voice like this each time I read the book...

[SpookOfHearts99]

It would make more sense for her to say,

"But what unearthed me completely",

rather than

"But what on earth knew completely".

Xx~~

[wtwh1]

where did you get the fancy writing during the video ?

i love it

[7izanami2]

thanks!!!! this book sounds epic!!!! emiie autumn is the next shakespear!!!

[armagedon6666]

[juliannacheer21]

omg thats soooooo good!!!!!!!!!!

[7izanami2]

ok, its called the asylum right? and when excactly does it come out, cause i see in december, or in april, or in febuary of 2009 or 2010, please make up your mind!!! when does it come out and i dont want a bunch of different dates. also where can i get it.

[runningwithsckizzors]

Its out now just google The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls you should be able to find it in the first link

[DollwarDevil]

I loved reading this book! It's my second time reading it now and I sitll can't put it down o_o

[sebs8]

It's NOT the intro.

[AvannTethialla]

This was posted 2 years ago.

So I had no idea what it was.

[TheSwanheart]

Is this really a true story? I doubt it... xD

But I love Emilie, and it seems too be a really exciting book!

[spagerbot]

@TheSwanheart Apparently this part is of her own making, but the rest is an account of her incarceration.

[redredkroovy666]

@TheSwanheart It's true....Well from her mind anyways....It's the way she saw her arrival at the asylum the first time she was committed.

[atilfunami]

its out to buy february 2010

[DollwarDevil]

It was out to buy in December :-)

[atilfunami]

its out to bye in february 20010

[jzjess23]

[Jorindevil]

jess

[velmax30]

Vary beutiful and amenous. I must ask for this book this christmas.

[RetroSimplicity]

It's out! However I can only find it in a huge bundle of things, it's worth it though.

[Mrijk1206]

I will read the Asylum Book within 2 months, I hope!

[callie15555556]

this sends shivers up my spine at the end!!! its like.... The Asylum and then i get the shivers! i want tthe book seprate but i cant get it in stores yet

[strangeling354]

i adore emilie autumn and i shall definetely have to get this book the moment i find it! her voice is amasing, in both her songs and her poems.

[DollwarDevil]

You can pre order the book w/ a shirt, tote bag, opheliac cd, recipe book and a few other things..... 80 dollars!

[PsychoRat100]

where?

[xButterflyLie]

That's correct really. there are tons of mistakes in this but Avann Tethialla can't really do much unless she/he wants to make a new video.

[AvannTethialla]

^ Trufax. I don't have the patients to do something like this again.

Maybe in the future.

[balcsabath]

hey do u know if they are going to sell her book in bookstores :)

[callie15555556]

i dont know but i want to know too.

[xDeadxVampirex]

I don't know, but my guess would be no way. I think it's far too personal for anyone to walk into a bookstore and buy it; it's simply for fans. I should hope, anyway...

[believethatshit]

She's my hero.

[MartyredxMaiden]

I am shivering right now!!!

I cannot wait to own this book!!!!!!

[zanewoody]

i know it needs to come out soon

[gsully11131]

amazing :)

[moonmander]

I LOVE emilie!

[DollTheater]

plupp ea <33

[mistressabyss]

If anyone has read the beggining of the rerelease of enchant (the ickle story) its no suprise how amazing it would be.

Wow.

Seriously, I love her.

[LadyLetheSiren]

Oh this is devine! :D

Thanks you for sharing, I will definitely be getting this when it's out. :)

[XxAnishaGhanixX]

when is it out?

[LadyLetheSiren]

Hmm...well, those who purchased the V.I.P. tickets for the tour will be getting it this Fall season in the US, signed too!, so I suspect between now and sometime in October...

[SenoMaru]

@XxAnishaGhanixX

you can order it on her website for fifty dollars

[grimmble1994]

There are some complications in publishing the book, so it will be released a little later than expected. I can't wait for it! (& there will be a book on tape, too.)

[ShikaruNYAPPY]

What is The Asylum exactly?

I know it is a book written by Emilie,

but can anyone explain me what the asylum is?

I prefer dutch.:$

[AvannTethialla]

Technically, she's explaining how it would be to come to the gates of an Asylum. An Asylum is a "hospital" for the "mentally ill." It usually resulted to a lot of odd treatments and painful things.

[JustaPersonNotaLabel]

so if i went to chapters or something i could find her book?

:D

[gigglecorn]

that was brain numbing!!! i am very interested woah!

[w98]

Very interesting. I can't wait till the book comes out. Does anybody know when it does, cause I don't?

[emzo12]

apparently the book comes out in the summer sometime

[YourSomeoneIOnceKnew]

When this book comes out, I'm going to marry it. :D

[synthangel]

You and me!

[666Mariko666]

@YourSomeoneIOnceKnew and, did you marry it ;-) ?

[hclairvoyant]

"But what unnerved me completely..." not "But what on earth knew completely"... lol.

[VictorianLyddie]

Please tell me this is comming out in the UK? My friend told me that it won't be sold in Ireland and that he was told that it would onyl come out in the US

[poisondesires]

Could the four letter plate-lock by any chance spell the word "L-O-V-E" by any chance?

[JasherOfficial]

i believe she says studded in stead of feathered, just wanted to point it out.

=)

[xDeadxVampirex]

How do you know it's better than what I could do?! D:

And I HAVE given AvannTethialla (that's how you spell it) some credit. I commented before saying awesome video or something, favourited, rated and viewed atleast 10 times. So you sh! :)

[AvannTethialla]

A year late on responding, hope you don't mind. :3

But thank you - it was rather obnoxious to do all this on Windows Movie Maker and time it all right, I wish I had done it when I had my Vegas 7 :(. I know there are a few things that are misspelled and mistranslated, but it was made almost 3 years ago before even introduced to what it was... let alone any real translation, so I was winging the majority of it and pausing every 3 seconds to write down words and such for the lyrics. :3

[xDeadxVampirex]

-Ahem-, Mary, the words are not really that accurate. At least - not all of them...

At 3:39 it says 'prefaces' which should have been 'precipice'. (:

[katatmurderhaha]

Is there another parts of this book on the net?

[Myklebust]

It is not from a book, but from the cd 4 o clock by Emilie Autumn.

[ImaginaryEclipse]

O. My. God.

Thsi was awsome as hell!

[louiseduvee]

A new poet! And, what talent!

Thank you!

[sexyemofruit]

Haha. Sorry.

]:

[sexyemofruit]

You have horrible spelling.

But I love this, so far. EA is my idol, and I can't wait for this.

[AvannTethialla]

Well, thank you. That's greatly appreciated. :P

[amindofmyownhere]

amazing, want the book

[zeanith1]

Goddammit. Is The Asylum still being released? I want it so badly.

[TheBeastWhatSqueaks]

Few more:

"Sharp spikes gleaming in the pummelling rain"

"A quivering mass, they swam over the cobblestones like one creature"

"When the swarm dispersed"

"As they melded together again"

"to the other side"

"we were at the ultimate precipice at last"

And I meant to say "emitting a STRANGE metallic growl"... silly me.

Hope that helps, really cool video!

[TheBeastWhatSqueaks]

Couple of corrections:

"What unnerved me completely was beyond the gates"

"Heavy, wooden, pointed, arched; towering higher than any entrance to any building that I had ever seen"

"Crossed with iron bars and fettered with heavy bolts"

"These admirable administers of magical medicine"

"A short drive onward"

"Or simply through years of habit, more accustomered were they to being closed than open"

"Of the lock on the cabinet in my music master's study"

"emitting a great metallic growl"

[ChamelionCircuit]

More, I want more! *Scrambles and scrapes with bloody fingernails*

[VictorianLyddie]

Is this Emilie reading it?

And is it in america that the book comes out or all over the world?

I so want this book

and her other works

[SafetyLiesInFear]

Great job!

Love it!

[lostinrejectland]

This is good.

[PrincessWormGuts]

After listening to this, I have a wierd feeling that someone's right behind me, watching my every move.

[kiah666necr0]

[WithLoveAliceCullen]

[NyappyKittie]

[xlovexdeathxpainx]

[OgreTheHungry]

OMG This book will be sooo great!! Can't wait to read it!! When does it come out?? :]

[SasukexMoe]

Whenever her Asylum tour is over.

[Murdoc2Dbabe]

Is she going to make a book of this? Because it's really good.

[Lukkelina]

This book is going to be great, just like Emilie. I cant wait to buy it :D btw, at about 0:15 she actually says; but what unnerved me completely was beyond the gates

[canibolisticgumybear]

[nattykin44]

woah. that's pretty freaky.

[miekkiej]

So when will this book be out?? o.0' I'll go see Emilie @ end of October in Holland. Is it out by then?!

[Rowaaaan]

In Utrecht he? Ik wil daar ook zograag heen...

tenminste, ik neem aan dat u nederlands bent =p

[miekkiej]

u..?? U?! Hahah lieverd ik ben 19 jaar.. ik word op mn zaterdagbaantje al genoeg u genoemd, ik voel me nu al oud! Ja, ik ben Nederlands:) Ik denk dat je nog wel kaartjes kan regelen voor Emilie hoor, Tivoli is een grote zaal... Check me pro!! Er staan 2 filmpjes over Emilie op. Als je me herkent moet je even hoi roepen^^ (Feels like a celebrity right now) xx

[Rowaaaan]

U is voor mij soort vlaams... in mijn vriendengroep noemt iedereen elkaar u :$ maarja.. however, ik denk dat ik niet naar Emilie kan, zou niet weten hoe ik zolaat dan nog terug moet... ik zou kijken op uw pro, al heb ik hier nogsteeds niet echt veel verstand van.. mijn pro zuigt kinda xD

[miekkiej]

Hee:)

Joh, voor 17 euro per kaartje heb ik een boel over! Check je laatste reismogelijkheid, ga desnoods eerder weg,, 17 euro is niks^^ kom kom kom, is leuk!^^ xx

[Rowaaaan]

ya maar het wordt wel meer dan 17 euro he... reiskosten, en tjaa het wordt dan wel later, en dan weet ik niet hoe ik terug kan, ik kan nog wel kijken of ik kom, doe mijn best dus... ZO vet, ik heb echt alles voor haar over.. maarja mijn ouders volgensmij niet x.x xD...

[FaithOverAttraction]

Is this talking about the Waverly Hills Sanatorium?

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

It was all so ghastly, so intoxicating, my body convulsed in a quivering wave, somewhere between horror, and wild anticipation. And then, the final gate having slammed closed behind us, we were at the ultimate precipice at last. Three...Two...One...The doors began to open, there was an awful grinding of metal, a clashing of loosened chains. And with the skies seeming to come down around us, it appeared. The Asylum.

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

Horses mystified me, and when the swarm dispersed, and shot on ahead of us, they darted in and out beneath the wheels of the carriage and around the Horses hammering hooves, yet, were never trampled. I followed them with my eyes as they melded together again and slipped beneath the gate to the other side like a gush of dark water, the tide coming in.

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

Looking out, i swore i saw, though i did not believe my eyes at the time, a great pack of rodents, perhaps a hundred, perhaps more, sleek furry bodies skimming the Earth leaping over each other, black eyes sparkling. A quivering mass, they swam over the cobblestones like one creature, Squid's ink, spilling into water, and infecting it with deep black in seconds. How they were able to keep up with the

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

Still galloping at full speed, i heard the muffled squeals of what sounded like a swarm of insects.

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

I felt dizzy, and much too warm. The wind screamed around the carriage, the wheels rattled, and though the gate was close ahead, we seemed to be eternally racing towards it, making no progress. A bird, something like a Raven, but a great deal larger, soared overhead, and, emitting a strange, metallic growl into the blackening sky, circled above the ever-approaching gates. As it did so, i caught sight of the sharp spikes gleaming in the pumelling rain.

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

With each turn of the wheels that brought me closer to the last gate, i tried harder to drown out the answer to my questions with whatever music i could conjour into my head. Approaching the third, i began to lose my grasp on reality. I imagined we were going in circles, driving through the same gates over and over again, endlessly circling. As though there were a certain number of rotations that must be completed before access to this unknown world was granted to us.

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

Were these gates erected for the protection of this great establishment? For the security of these admirable administers of magical medicines? Were these prison bars meant to keep intruders out, or to keep it's inhabitants in?

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

So paralysed was i by the sight before me, i did not notice that we had already driven past the first of the three spiked gates guarding access to the door, until i heard it crashing to a close behind us. Where am i? A short drive onward and we were at the second gate, i turned to look behind me and saw the gates closing, one after the other by power of unseen hands, or simply through years of habit more accustomed were they to being closed than opened.

[WerewolfRAWRRR]

And when i looked out i saw that we were heading fast upon a series of Iron gates set in stone, wickedly arched, and crowned with tall spikes. But what unnerved me completely was beyond the gates, a set of doors, heavy and wooden, pointed arched towering higher than any entrance to any building i had ever seen. Crossed with iron bars, and studded with heavy bolts, the doors were set in a great wall that appeared to be protecting whatever waited inside.

[StillxDoll]

i want to make my own, lol

[Valephor]

This and two other fragments taken from the upcoming book "the Asylum" can be found on the new EP, "4 o'Clock".

[BlindSided182]

I love this! Where can I buy the book? Can I buy it in book's a million?

[flyleafboy1012]

So chilling

[unlaced2475]

Thank you so much! Can you do the other ones too?

[AvannTethialla]

Honestly, I would absolutely love to. but I can't find any that I can get...

[unlaced2475]

Wait, what do you mean by "can't find any that i can get"?

[AvannTethialla]

I found this on myspace, so it was free.

[classiceuro1]

thanks so much for this!

do you know where i can get the book?

[unlaced2475]

It isn't out yet. But it will probably be the BEST BOOK EVER xP

[AngelHael]

Thanks for posting this! I've got chills now. <3 I can't wait until this book comes out. However, I did notice that, at 3:39, she says "precipices," not "prefaces." Otherwise, you did an excellent job, especially since you just listened without words.

[AngelHael]

I'm sorry. It was "precipice," not "precipices." XD

[AvannTethialla]

Thanks! I'll edit it in the "More Info" section. <3

[tycapece]

Oh, I loved it! How many times did you have to listen to that before being able to make this video? There were some words that I noticed were different, but (Oh) wonderfull job. Bravo!

[AvannTethialla]

While I was making it, every sentence she said was replayed over 6-8 times. :P

[nightbeauty02]

omg, she sickens me with her details of madness and filth. she is an amazing writer, it's 10am and i'm scared shitless. <3!

[DaizyDizaster]

when can i buy this book?

(:

[AvannTethialla]

As soon as I find out, I'll let you know. Because I sure as hell am going to try to get it.

[DaizyDizaster]

thanks

(:

[bowiesbabe]

Thank you so much for posting the lyrics! There were some words I could not make out on my own.

<X3

[TasteOfTorment]

This is my FAVVVVV poem by Emilie by far!

It reminda me of Eloise (The Aymlum)

Creepy and amazing!
